- Frasier: Oh, er, Dad...
- Martin Crane: It's not here yet.
- Frasier: How did you even...
- Martin Crane: You've been yakking about it for weeks. Your new blazer's coming. It's Italian, it's hand-stitched, it cost more money than my first car.
- Frasier: Yes, well, it's made from very expensive material. They have to find exactly the right kind of goat.
- Martin Crane: Looks like they did!
- Martin Crane: Niles, guess what your brother's doing?
- Dr. Niles Crane: Pressing his new blazer?
- Martin Crane: Yeah, against a stripper!
- Dr. Mel Karnofsky: Frasier, It could be a thoracic strain!
- Daphne: or a bulging disc!
- Regan Shaw: Yes, impinging on your lumbar nerve!
- Frasier: Yes. It could easily be any one of those things. But, did you also consider that it might be the stripper chained to my wrist?
- Daphne: Officer Nasty!
- Martin Crane: [Frasier has just entered the apartment after his date with Dinah] Hey, Fras.
- Frasier: Oh, hi, Dad.
- Martin Crane: [suggestive] How was your date?
- Frasier: Well, it was nice. We had a beer, talked a bit...
- Martin Crane: She has a helluva body, doesn't she?
- Frasier: Dad, that was not what this evening was about. This evening was about taking a chance, getting to know a different sort of woman. It turns out she's really quite interesting, Dinah. She's working her way through grad school, she lives with her mother, she's extremely well-read, she even speaks a couple of languages.
- Martin Crane: Well, it makes you wonder, doesn't it?
- Frasier: Yes, it does, doesn't it? It makes you wonder how eager we are to judge a book by its cover, how willing we are to stereotype...
- Martin Crane: No, I mean, it really makes you wonder what the mother looks like!
- Dr. Mel Karnofsky: She never thinks about anybody but herself. Daphne, get me a cup of tea.
- Daphne: Actually, I have a bit of a headache.
- Dr. Mel Karnofsky: Oh, you could be coming down with something. Wash your hands first.
